Item Details

Description

Maske, "ogbodo enyi"
Igbo-Izzi, Nigeria
Gesockelt / with custom base
Holz, Kupfer. H 57 cm.

Provenienz:
Galerie Walu, Zürich (vor 1995).

ogbodo-enyi-Aufsatzmaske („Geist des Elefanten“), welche im nordöstlichen Igbo-Gebiet bei den Izzi, Ezzi und Ikwo verbreitet ist.

Ursprünglich überwachten die Maskengestalten, die aggressiv und gewalttätig auftraten, die soziale Ordnung, doch ist die Funktion heute weitgehend auf unterhaltsame Tänze beschränkt.

Diese kühn konzipierte Maske ist ein äusserst gelungenes Beispiel einer gekonnten Abstraktion naturalistischer Vorbilder, von der sich die westlichen Künstler Anfang des 20. Jh. auf dem Weg zum Kubismus wesentlich inspirieren liessen.
